National Historic Landmark. Approximately 75' long and 65' tall wooden and tin elephant

History:

Constructed about 1881 on the Margate waterfront, this seventy-five foot long wood and tin pachyderm is the last survivor of what one historian calls "zoomorphic architecture." Built as an architectural folly to attract home buyers to the area, it has become a favorite in the landscape of seaside New Jersey.
